使用Driver_NULL驱动模拟SteamVR外围设备

Driver_NULL 模式是SteamVR用于编写其他设备的示例程序，同时也可以使用它来在没有安装VR设备的PC上调试运行我们的程序。以下是streamVR 配置说明：

https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamVR/steamvr.vrsettings

steamvr.vrsettings is a json file in the format below. To enable a key remove the // in front of the particular line. Usually only low-level programmers need to set any of these keys. This file lives in the "config" directory under Steam.

    {
       "jsonid" : "vrsettings",
       "steamvr" : {
            // "ipd": 0.0635,
            // "forcedDriver": "null",
            // "forcedHmd": "",
            // "requireHmd": true,
            // "displayDebug": false,
            // "enableDistortion": true,
            // "displayDebugX": 0,
            // "displayDebugY": 0,  
            // "sendSystemButtonToAllApps": false,
            // "loglevel": 3,
            // "background": "backgrounds/image_%d.png", (now requires fully qualified path)
            // "backgroundCameraHeight": 1.6,
            // "backgroundDomeRadius": 10.0, (0.0 == Infinite)
            // "directMode": true,
            // "usingSpeakers": true, (only works in some Unity games current)
            // "speakersForwardYawOffsetDegrees": 90.0,
            // "renderTargetMultiplier": 1.0
            // ^ Make sure your last entry does not include a trailing comma (use jslint when in doubt to verify format).
        },
       "driver_lighthouse": {
            // "disableimu": false,
            // "usedisambiguation": "tdm",
            // "disambiguationdebug": 0,
            // "primarybasestation": 0,
            // "lighthousename": "",
            // "maxincidenceangledegrees": 60.0,
            // "uselighthousedirect": true,
            // "dbhistory": false
        },
       "driver_null" : {
            // drivers are searched in alphabetical order, so you may need steamvr.forcedDriver="null" as well
            // "enable": true,
            // "id": "Null Driver",
            // "serialNumber": "Null 4711",
            // "modelNumber": "Null Model Number",
            // "windowX": 100,
            // "windowY": 100,
            // "windowWidth": 1920,
            // "windowHeight": 1080,
            // "renderWidth": 1344,
            // "renderHeight": 1512,
            // "secondsFromVsyncToPhotons": 0.1,
            // "displayFrequency": 90
       },
       "version" : "1"
    }

设置Driver_NULL 模式 启用本地无VR设备运行程序的steamvr.setting 配置：

{
    "steamvr": {
        "background": "D:\\Program Files (x86)\\ViveSetup\\SteamVR\\resources\\backgrounds\\viveNight.png",
        "activateMultipleDrivers" : true,
       "forcedDriver": "null"
    },
    "driver_null" : {
         "enable": true,
         "id": "Null Driver",
         "serialNumber": "Null 4711",
         "modelNumber": "Null Model Number",
         "windowX": 100,
         "windowY": 100,
         "windowWidth": 1920,
         "windowHeight": 1080,
         "renderWidth": 1344,
         "renderHeight": 1512,
         "secondsFromVsyncToPhotons": 0.1,
         "displayFrequency": 90
   }

}

透过使用以上参数配置，就可以模拟vr设备，运行vr程序。
